    What a nice gesture. She will love it. How nice to reconnect with family. Now I have to go google Montenegro (red face).

    I found out from her son that her favourite colour is purple so I came up with a pretty simple design in EQ. I sure hope she gets it as mail theft is common over there according to my Cousin.

    What a wonderful story! And the quilt? Stunning! Would you consider sharing/posting your EQ diagram as a jumping-off point? Thanks for sharing!
